Trust the error message to mean what it says,
the M4 parser got to the end of the file before
it got to the end of a string. I.e., you have
an unmatched string delimiter somewhere in that
file. If you edit with vim(), it has a delimiter
matching function in the "%" key which should help
you do the needed check.
